Calculus

The branch of mathematics that deals with the study of continuously changing quantities, with the use of limits and the differentiation and integration of functions of one or more variables, is called Calculus. Calculus analyzes aspects of change in processes or systems that can be modeled by functions. The English physicist, Isaac Newton, and the German mathematician, G. W. Leibniz, working independently, developed calculus during the 17th century.

Graph the linear equation y equals -x plus 2?

y = -x + 2

The graph is a straight line, with [slope = -1], and passing through the point [y=2] on the y-axis.

Solve this equation using subtitution 2x-3y equals 4 and x plus 4y equals -9?

2x-3y = 4

x+4y = -9 => x = -9-4y

Substitute x = -9-4y into the top equation:

2(-9-4y)-3y = 4

-18-8y-3y = 4

-8y-3y = 4+18

-11y = 22

Divide both sides by -11 to find the value of y:

y = -2

Substitute the value of y into the original equations to find the value of x:

Therefore: x = -1 and y = -2

Remember that the product of a minus times a minus is equal to a plus when working out the original equations,

Find f prime of x if f of x equals 1 divided by x plus 2?

Apply the reciprocal rule: If f(x) = 1/h(x) then f'(x) = -h'(x)/(h(x))^2

What is x if 8x over 15 is equal to 80?

8x / 15 = 80

Multiply each side by 15:

8x = 1,200

Divide each side by 8:

x = 150

What is the integral of sin x squared all divided by x?

The Web site integrals.wolfram.com gives the following:

integral of sin2x/x = (1/2) (log x - Ci(2 x))

Ci is the cosine integral, a special function. Look at the site for a more detailed description.

What this really means is that this integral can NOT be solved with the so-called elementary functions, i.e., using only polynomials, roots, trigonometric functions, natural logarithms, and the inverses of some of these.

What is the height of a polygon?

It depends upon the size of the polygon, as well as its orientation (flat on the ground, or placed upright, etc.).

How would you solve for x?

It depends on the problem you are trying to solve.

like; 2x + 3 = 13.

it would be "5". (Multiplication.)

or x/3 = 6. x= 18. this is a division problem.

Like I said, it all depends on your problem.

What is 5 times x plus 2 negative 7 n plus 8?

an unsolvable algebraic expression. It isn't equal to anything so it isn't an equation. It contains 2 variables x and n so without more info that is it.

What is the meaning of the design term Plus Minus tolerance?

The term plus/minus is used to state the acceptable range of values for a number, or the estimated error of a measurement. If, for instance, you said 3.7+/-0.2, you would be saying "between 3.5 and 3.9". The term +/- is written as a plus sign, +, with a line drawn under it, so that it appears as an equal sign, =, moved down slightly, with a verticle line at the center extending from the bottom line to above the top line. (I describe it here, because symbols do not seem to be available in this forum.)

How many diagonals does a 6 sided shape have?

I am sure that a shape with six side has 9 diagonals. (I found out cause I really wanted to help people.)

CAN AN Object accelerate and be moving at a constant speed?

Yes, it's direction may be constantly changing which would mean it is still accelerating.

What is x in this equation negative 9 minus 7 times x equals negative 5?

If the equation is (-9-7)x = -5, then x= .3125 or 5/16

If the equation is -9-7x = -5, then x = -.571428 or -4/7

Will 5 x 100 fits on 5 x 112 bolt pattern?

Unfortunately not - as the numbers suggest, the spacing is different.

How do you solve y equals -5x plus 1?

That equation has no "solution" ... no single pair of numbers for 'x' and 'y' that makes it true.

In fact, it has an infinite number of them.

Here are a few:

x=1, y=-4

x=2, y=-9

x=-3, y=16

y = -5x + 1 is the equation of a line.

Every point on the line has the coordinates (x,y), and every point satisfies the equation.

How do you find the range of a rational function?

If the degree of the polynomial is odd, the range is all real numbers - for example, y = x5.

If the degree is even, use derivatives to find maxima or minima. You learn about derivatives, maxima and minima in any basic calculus course. Example:

y = x4 - 3x3

Take the derivative:

y' = 4x3 - 9x2

Solve for zero:

4x3 - 9x2 = 0

This will give you two maxima or minima; in this case, check at which of these points the function has the smallest value. Because of the positive coefficient of the leading term, the function values go from this point all the way to plus infinity.

How do you find the general solutions of csc x equals -2?

Cosec x = -2 => sin x = -0.5

The primary solution is x = -pi/6 radians.

Therefore the solutions are: 2n*pi - pi/6 and (2n+1)*pi + pi/6 for all integer n.

How many years would it take to count to 6.9 billion?

If you counted 1 number per second, it would take at least 220 years to count to 6.9 billion.
